Tnenlber df that body ‘will do—we
"will goTarthcT and say'that we will
give "the-county as much free labor
as all of them put t^rther— bnt we
ore not willing that they shall as
sign ns a task to perform and say
that we shall be paid less than one-
fonrth the customary price for the
same unless they will set ns an eX -
ample by drawing only one-fbnrth
their per diem. We understand
that the unreasonable and unbusi-
ness-like^onclnsion embodied in that
presentment was arrived at in this
wise: 'Grand Jury presentments are
a matter df public interest which all
the peojfle desire to read and are,
therefore, as acceptable to our sub
scribers as any other reading matter
we could present and should be pub
lished for nothing, or for a nominal
fee. -At first glance this would seem
to ‘be a very plausible view of it, but
when you come to think the matter
over you can have all the other pub
lic work performed, by the same
process of reasoning, for nomin. 1
fees. The labors of the Grand Jury
were of public interest and benefit,
bnt it seems never to have occurred
to them that they should have done
the work for 25 cents a day. Court
houses, jails and bridges are matters
of public interest and necessity, but
we presume the Grand Jury would
scarcely expect contractors to build
them for one fourth the regular
prices.
The Tery fact that these present
ments are matters of general inter
est, that the citizens of the county
desire to see and read, is the very
best kind of a reason why the Jury
should have ordered them published
and paid for. The cost to each tax
payer, at o ir regular advertising
rates, would have been but a fraction
of a cent, and we doubt if the most
fervid, intense reformer and retrench
er would have objected to contribu
ting his quut* uf itie ice. Our ad
vertising columns are the only source
from which we can hope for revenue;
the small amount received for sub
scriptions does not pay or.e-half the
cost of publishing the paper. If we
give the tounty free use of our col
umns there is no reason why we
should extend the samo favor to
private parties, and we should then
be brought to the necessity of sus
pending publication or paying sev
eral hundred dollars a year for the
privilege of continuing it We ore
.satisfied that these thoughts were
mot in the minds of the jurymen
-■when the presentment was made, or
it would have been different. They
would either not have recommended
(publication at all or would have or
dered that it be paid for at some
price approximating the cost of the
work. They are fair-minded men
and would not knowingly have made
an absuid presentment. The Jury
of the first week had Bitch brief
presentments that they thought the
price was a fair one tor the work,
aud it was about half our regular
rats; but the Jury of the seconu
week want more than double the
amonnt of work done for the same
pay.
Our readers will understand, from
these remarks, why the presentments
of the Grand Jury fur the second
week are not published.

Perhaps, no feature in modern

that of writing sensational details of

women and children should not con
tain such miserable stuff. It is de
moralizing and degrading to society,
and we are glad onr best newspapers

The Political Horoscope.
Well Posted.
The general impression seems to
be, however, that the Independents
will settle on Judge Hiram Warner,
the present Chief Justice of the
State. He is a New Hampshire man,
but has been on the bench in Geor
gia for the most of his life. He is
honest and capable, but uninagnetic
.and stiff. He will most probably
be centered on by the Independents.
Whether he will accept or not re
mains to be seen. It is certain that
Gov. Colquitt will ask for another
.term, and almost as certain that he
will have the nomination of his
party.
We clip the above from the At
lanta correspondence of the New
York Herald. Being “neither a
prophet nor the son of a prophet
onr vuticinations amount to nothing,
but if we were tc attemp to forecast
the result of the next gubernatorial
canvass in this State we should leave
all of the above items out of the

We are rtedy to day to vote for
Governor Colquitt’s re-election if it
be nectssary to indorse his official acts
as governor of the State. We do not
know that Governor Colquitt will
seek a renomination at the hands of
the democratic party, but if fie
should do so as means to ascertain
public opinion upon his conduct as
the executive of the State, we would
support him cheerfully. Governor
Colquitt is a poor man—too poor to
fill the excutive chair with its paltry
salary, and he may not desire tire of

sentiment upon his official conduct.
In that event we belive the people
would sustain him by re-culectiou.

We can understand that some peo'
pie love to dance, and will dance; we
can also understand that some peo
ple love the Methodist Church and
desires to be in its commnnion. Bnt
how any man or woman can ask to
be a dancer and a Methodist, at one
and the same time, we cannot explain
at all. When people join onr Church
they do most solemnly in their vows
and promises, pledge themselves not
to do those things that the universal
testimony of the Church condemns
If one should say to us: “I did not
promise not to dance,” we answer, in
so many words, you did not so prom,
ise. Neither did you expressly prom
ise not to steal horses. But virtual
ly, as every intelligent and honest
man knows, yon did most solemnly
promise to “renounce” all those
thing held by the Church to be hurt
ful to religion. It is a very plain
case to a right-minded person “ Quit

The following is an extract from
ihe last letter of “Mont” the Par a
correspondent of 'be Cincinnati En
quirer :
At thi3 moment the eyes of Euro; o
are turned towards the great army
commander iu Zululand. During
“onr little war” this officer was a
guest with Gen. Robert E. Lee. I
knew him then. I have met him
since. The last time I met him I
asked him where his headquarters
would be in South Africa. “Not in
tho saddle,” he replied, with a smile,
and the suggestive quotation revived
our recollections of persons and
events in the past that gave us much
mirth of criticism. We talked over
the campaigning in the South, and
Sir Garnet said: "Do you know that
the armies ol Europe have learned
some great lessons from Gen. Lee ?
I think he was the greatest General
of his age; yes, perhaps of any age;
and mv own opinion is that the
norm, .iiougn no» .-.j- t—.-.a
now, will soon come to look upon
Gen. Lie with us much pride ns the
people of the South, aud both In. glo
rified of the great American General,
from whom much of modern strate
gy has grown into rales of war.” 1
note this as coming from the first
soldier of Great Britian, if not of
Eafuiw, atti at aomc future dij I
may add further remarks on the Gen
erals who were opposed to Gen. Rob
ert E. Lee. and whose military abili
ties European officers have carefully
noted.

The Pun ad Measure.
There is Shout to be a great revo
lution in the methods of sales of pro
duce. It has been approved by the
Secretsry of War and of the Navy. It
was originated by the Board of Man
agers of the Produce Exchange, and
responses from Boards of Exchange
are being received in answer to circu
lars setting forth its advantages. It
contemplates the abolishment of the
bnshel and its divisions, gallons,
quarts and pints, and substitutes the
pound - for everything, including
fluids o! ever description, oils, eyr-
ups, lard, tallow, also wheat, corn,
meal and produce of all kinds. The
different boards will determine the
weight of the various articles; for in
stance, oils will be put at 7i p nuds
per gallon, and the prices will thenjl e
determined at so much a pound
Eggs, potatoes, vinegar, whiskey,
etc., will all be arranged. The mnlit-
ple of the pound will be the 100
pounds and the market prices be quo
ted per centum hereafter instead of
bushel or barrel. This seems to ns,
without any particular examination,
to be the finest method of selling and
buying. There has always been abun
dant room for cheating in the sales
of produce from tbe great variation
in tbe weights of the same articles
nnder different circumstances. For
merly, when corn was sold alone by
the bnshel, the was great room for
fraud, as that article varies every year
at different periods of the same year.
In measuring by tbr bnshel there is
a habit oi heaping np in some locali
ties, while in others they strike. By
the ponnd, there will be no cause for
complaint on the part of either buy
er or seller.—Exchange.

They have a new game in Virginia
City, Nevada. It is called the “pot
game.” The Chronicle of that city
says it is very simple; that almost
anybody who has a pair of legs, a big
club and a pot can play it “In the
first place yon lay an earthen pot on
the grass, next yon blind fold a lady
and give her a seven foot clnb. You
then lead her off about twenty paces
aud turn her round until she thinks
that northeast is southweet. Having
collected her senses, she begins h
hnnt the pot, and when she ge's on
to the patch of grass where she sup
poses it is, strikes vigorously wiih her
clubigeueraily missing it hy about
twelve yards. The other day a lady
who was taking a hand in the past
time strack blindly in the air, knock
ing down a faro dealer. He was
completely stnnned for a few seconds,
and as his back was turned towards
the woman when the Mow was struck,
be had no idea wh^t had hit him.
When be recovered bw senses, how
ever, the woman had handed the club
to the master of ceremonies, who was
holing the bludgeon in his hand when
the faro man tumid round. The fa
ro man at once assaulted the master
of ceremonies.
The pot game soon became a riot,
and the faro expert and his crowd
h id threshed seven men before the
sport was satisfac'orily explained.

The Only Article that Will Re

Whiff the World has been
Wanting fbr Centuries.
The greatest discovery of oaf day, so far as d
large portion ef humanity U CcftKetnei, is CAB-
BO LINK. aa article prepared from petroleum, and
which effects a complete and radical cure In case of
baldness,- er where the hair, owing to diseases of
the scalp,- has become thin and tends to fall out.
It Is also a speedy restorative, and while its use se-

the accumulations of dandruff, and tho premat unf

dition of the scalp and tbe gland? which nourish the
hair. To arrest these causes the article used mnst

effect of petroleum upon the hair was first observed,
a Government officer having noticed that a partially
bald-headed servant of his, when trimming tho
fcmtps, had a habit of wiping his oil-besmeared
hands In his scanty locks, and tbe result was in a
lew mouths • much finer bead of black, glossy hair
than ha ever had before. The oil was tried on
horses and cattle that had lost their hair from tho
plague, and tbe results were as rapid as they
were marvelous. Tbe manes and even the tafia of
horses, which had fallen out, were completely re
moved la a few weeks. These experiments wera
heralded to the world, hot the knowledge was prac
